Interested in AI and natural sciences and drug design? Come and join us! Two 2-year postdoctoral positions available for AI-Accelerated Oligonucleotide Drug Design funded by DDLS-WASP in Göteborg, Sweden. The twinned post-docs will push the boundary on understanding the thermodynamics impact of chemical modifications in novel classes of therapeutic oligonucleotides.
Focus is on machine learning and bioinformatics (apply by Feb 10, https://www.chalmers.se/en/about-chalmers/Working-at-Chalmers/Vacancies/Pages/default.aspx?rmpage=job&rmjob=10133), respectively on molecular simulation and computational chemistry (apply by Jan 31 at https://web103.reachmee.com/ext/I005/1035/job?site=7&lang=UK&validator=9b89bead79bb7258ad55c8d75228e5b7&job_id=23498). The two postdoctoral researchers will closely collaborate, will be jointly supervised by both PIs, Alexander Schliep (CSE, University of Gothenburg | Chalmers, https://schlieplab.org) and Pär Matsson (Pharmacology, University of Gothenburg, https://www.gu.se/en/research/cellular-and-molecular-pharmacokinetics), and spend time in both labs. Close ties to the OligoNova Hub at the University of Gothenburg (part of SciLifeLab’s Drug Discovery and Development platform) and the considerable research activities at AstraZeneca R&D Gothenburg, provide a vibrant research environment in the exciting new area of computational design of oligonucleotide therapeutics. Additionally, the project involves collaboration with Rula Zain’s research group (Karolinska Institutet) to identify clinically relevant target genes in rare diseases and evaluate predicted oligonucleotide candidates in in vitro and in vivo models. Consequently, the postdoctoral position will position candidates to develop independent research programs and pursue distinguished careers either in academia or industry. Please be in touch if interested.
